Abney & Keshet (2025): Plural Intensional Presuppositional semantics #

The paper gives PIP (Logic/PIP/) its formal definition and a compositional fragment recasting the textbook rules of interpretation as semantic operations. Indefinites, tense and the traces of determiners are restricted variables, a variable paired with an assertion; FX lifts a predicate to take one, conjoining its assertion (lift); quantifier raising inserts a summation operator labeled with the quantifier's restriction or reference set (SA); modals and negation store their prejacent in a label through intensional functional application (IFA). The fragment is Tree and interp over the typed metalanguage Sem, and the paper's worked trees (47), (56), (59), (66), (93), (99) and (121) are derived (interp_aRedDogBarked, …, interp_mostOfThemUsedIt), the last reading the preceding sentence's labels through PA; value_aRedDogBarked checks intersubstitutability with the paper's abbreviated form, and value_bvar_ne_var that bracketing is not a matter of truth.

The applications are stated as PIP translations and their truth and felicity conditions proved on scenario models (Scenario.model) at a world of evaluation w₀: the paycheck pronoun's value follows its external variable (realize_sigma_indefOwned), (139) is felicitous only where its first sentence is false (felicitous_shop139_iff), the bathroom disjunction needs at most one bathroom (felicitous_bathroom143_iff), modal subordination quantifies over the accessible worlds where a wolf enters (realize_wolfDiscourse_iff), and a nuclear-scope presupposition is satisfied pointwise by the restriction within a sentence and across quantificational subordination (felicitous_everyMonarchy_iff, felicitous_discourse150a_iff). Variables of the formal system range over all pluralities, so where the paper reads a summation variable as a world that is a hypothesis on the assignment, and singular restricted variables carry SG as in the paper's (143); for negation as summation over worlds the two readings come apart, and the double negation of (138b) is false in any model with a second atom (not_realize_shop138).
